Summary

Creating robust, highly available, highly scalable database applications is absolutely critical in today2s web-based economy. Integrating various non-Microsoft database servers with Microsoft tools and technologies has not always proven to be an easy task. The new-paradigm of .NET development further complicates the issue, but also provides a powerful set of tools and technologies to build these mission-critical systems. With Building Highly Scalable database Applications with .NET, readers will be able to: Integrate .NET-based solutions with Oracle and DB2 and MySQL Harness the power of Microsoft2s ADO.Net for high performance computing Build efficient components for maximum scalability Integrate with existing COM-based applications Maximize transaction speed and message queue efficiency Scale applications to a much higher level, resulting in an increase in the number of users or transactions
